Re: Which Lavender?

Lavandula intermedia 'Provence' and 'Grosso' are good cultivars for the South as they tolerates the heat and humidity better than others. Spanish lavender is good too. (Lavandula stoechas)
For the North, you have to stay with Lavender angustifolia (USDA zone 4) if you want it to winter over.

Know where a fella could find some? I was told that Lavender is finiky and difficult to grow in our area.
